Overview

For 2019 we are delighted to travel to
Arundel, where we explore some interesting
in land cities and towns. We are based on
Hayling Island, bordered by both Chichester
and Langstone harbours, and with three miles
of beaches along its seafront on the Solent.
We include visits to Chichester, surrounded by
lovely countryside, imposing Arundel Castle
and historic Portsmouth. A great value, full
and varied break.

Your Itinerary:

Day 1

Thursday Departing our home areas we join
the Club Class coach for the drive to Hayling
Island where we arrive at our hotel late
afternoon. On arrival tea and coffee will be
served whilst our bags are taken to our rooms.

Day 2

Friday This morning we make our way to
Chichester with its magnificent Cathedral,
Roman Walls and a medieval heart. The centre
is compact with history all around, from the
Tudor Market Cross to the Georgian terraces.
We have time to explore and obtain lunch
before making our way to mighty Arundel
Castle, seat of the Dukes of Norfolk. Built in the
11th century, the castle has been restored and
added too over the centuries to become the
superb castle we see today, an ancient castle,
stately home and delightful gardens. We have
time to explore before returning to the hotel
with time before dinner.

Day 3

Saturday Today we head east following the
road to Worthing, Hove and the famous resort of
Brighton. Here we have time for exploration and
lunch. Why not enjoy a seafront stroll, explore the
unique Lanes, trendy café area or bars and shops.
You may fancy a visit to the famous Royal
Pavilion with its onion domes, or just relax and
watch the world go by. Mid afternoon we return
to the hotel.

Day 4

SundayWe head west today to maritime
Portsmouth where there are lots of interesting
things to see and do. Perhaps visit the historic
dockyard, home of ‘Victory’ and ‘Mary Rose’, wander around the Old Town and visit
the lovely Cathedral as well as Spice Island, former haunt of smugglers and press
gangs. A visit to Gunwharf Quays is a must, with an array of excellent shops, bars and
restaurants. We include a visit to the awesome Spinnaker Tower for fabulous views
along the south coast.

Day 5

Monday After breakfast we head home to be greeted by our awaiting taxis.
